Scott Worthington ­ Executive Producer
Colossalvision

Scott Worthington was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Tufts University and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. It was there that he discovered an intense interest in multi-media and video communication. From the creative role of artist and painter he suddenly found himself involved in computer graphics, video filming, writing and production.

Mr. Worthington moved to New York in 1978 and worked in post production for Devlin Productions - editing commercials and event programs for Ford, Peugeot and PBS. It was here that he gained broader experience and expanded technical capacity in all aspects of production. While at Devlin he was offered and accepted a position with Sak's Fifth Avenue where he created a video department for the production of video training programs for their staff and sales force. These productions included production pieces on new product launch information for Clinique, Estee Lauder, Giorgio Armani and video market surveys in various locations of the United States.

In 1981, Worthington joined Macy's in New York to design, implement and produce all of the programming for a video network. During his tenure at Macy's, he advanced to the position of Vice President of Corporate Communications in which his expertise was utilized in co-ordination and production of all print, video and multimedia communications to Macy's nationwide chain of department stores. He wrote and produced corporate meetings, point-of-purchase, special event and documentary productions for: Guess Jeans, Thornton Bay, Estee Lauder, Liz Claiborne, Karl Lagerfeld, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, and Cher, among others. His responsibilities heightened significantly during the company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing and resulting turnaround recovery. His efforts to consistently bring important communications in every format to all constituencies ­ employees, shareholders, creditors, and media ­ was noted as a key factor in helping the the company's reorganization team to add more than US$2 billion in value to the company. He also was co-developer of T.V. Macy's proposed 24 hour cable television shopping network - a joint production of Cablevision, Home Shopping Network, and 60 Minutes executive producer Don Hewitt.

Mr. Worthington left Macy's to capitalize on the vast experience he had gained in the corporate field and formed the Worthington Group, a communications consulting company. The firm developed communications plans and programs for clients, including the Home Shopping Network, Meridian Ventures, Federated Department Stores and Alco Standard.

In 1995 Mr. Worthington met David Niles and together they formed magic(window)group, a company focused primarily on the creation and production of HDTV for large-scale venues. This alliance produced programming and special events for Macy's and its parent company Federated Department Stores, Merrill Lynch, Nortel/Bay Networks and EMC2. Their creation and production of "Show Me New York" an HDTV/theatre travelogue spectacular gave visiting tourists a thrilling immersion in the sights and sounds of New York City. They produced another critically acclaimed HDTV installation in the Macyland attraction at Macy's Herald Square flagship store.

Early in 1998, Colossalvision was established by Niles and Worthington. From their new studios, built and designed by Niles located at 26 Broadway, they provide clients with the highest standard of HDTV production and post-production.
